    Check with the Cellular Service Providers. In South Africa they are also Internet Service Providers. They use the same infrastructure for both Internet & Cellular Services. I use a USB mobile modem on my desktop PC.

    You could use PDANet if you have an Android phone. However, some carriers will block such applications because they want to bill you a premium for Hotspot usage.
